Time, is a priceless thing in this world. Everyone trying to save their time as much as possible, by the technology development. Nowadays, we can use a lot of electronic devices to help us dealing with our daily life, such as e-banking, e-library even with e-living. Clothing, also is one of the most important daily thing, especially for some girls. Sometime they will spend a day to buy their dress, or cloth. If we go to some famous boutiques in Macau, all the dressing rooms are always full in every moments, we need to wait a lot of time to try our clothes on, and this is a big problem and waste a lot of time, also when we found some other clothes that we are interested, we need to queue up again. Furthermore, additional time is lost when taking clothes on and off. Reducing this time and helping people to put on a large collection of garment in reduced time was a relevant motivation for this project.
A virtual dressing room/machine is not very large, and then we can save a lot of space for the boutique. So a virtual dressing room/machine is a new kind of method to solve this problem. We just need to stand in front of the machine and then the machine will virtualize the clothes that you want on your body, and follow your movement the clothes will also follow the move angles and adjust the view, by using this technology we can solve a lot of problem listed, the most important thing is we can save a lot of time.
In this report, we will show you they how a virtual dressing room be done by using Kinect (a motion sensing input devices develop by Microsoft) and the result is quite nice and acceptable.
